Counseling helps to establish and preserve the emotional and psychosocial balance of the family and promote greater stability and autonomy for the individual who has a mental health disorder. This allows families to deal with their situation in a healthy way and overcome the disorganization that results from a lifestyle centered around the mental health disorder of a loved one.
